Default Brian O'Connor's Project 951si
Well, I guess I blew the motor in my 951 cause when I hit the NOS all the rivets in the passenger floorboard popped out and the floorboard fell out on the road making all kinds of sparks. So I still owe Dom a 10 second car and my 951 is trashed as you can see below, so I'm thinking of putting the 951 drivetrain into this civic:

here's my 951:


What do you guys think?

Where are the brakes on these cars? I'm trying to make my own custom calipers.

That's not very nice Richgreenster. This is a serious thread about my project. Why are you being so mean?

My swap took me 5 hours, with naws and and a supercharged radiator.

Civic would be even easier, maybe 2 or 3 hours

That's badass. I didn't realize how big a Le Car was till I saw one with a 951 motor and hood fitted.
